out of breath?

I already feel like I am 35 weeks with how out of breath I get by going up stairs or doing anything strenuous. My sister said she was out of breath in first trimester on her second also. Anyone else out of breath this early??

Yes! I am so out of breath. I walk a LOT for work (sales in large hospitals) so I was fairly in shape. Now I can manage at work with lots of little sit breaks but I more so see I'm out of breath at home just walking up and down the stairs! I'm wondering how those that work out are dealing with this?

Do any of you have asthma? Mine was still considered "poorly controlled" by my pulmonologist approx a month & a half before getting pregnant. I was taken off of some meds & cut back on others by the PA at my primary (this is a surprise baby, so I didn't have an ob) & she did referral to ob (still waiting for them to call - she said it's normal to take 2 - 4 weeks). Since then, I have been out of breath daily & wake up having attacks. There is some form of "comfort" if part of this is normal for those w/o asthma.

I do too. I asked my doc about it and she said something about its because our blood supply gets greater when we are pregnant and it goes down where the baby is kept. Sounded good to me so I went with it.

I thought I was crazy. I keep getting winded too. I had the hardest time working out this morning on the elliptical. I had to keep slowing down. Then I almost died trying to carry my 2 year old up a steep hill. I do not remember getting short of breath with my son. I am so glad I am not the only one.
